Wood floor repair at your home in Barkway
Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. We work on laminate flooring, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and engineered wood, and the jobs we see most are gouges from moving appliances and scratches from furniture and pets.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
What information do you need?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Does the room need clearing?
Only from the area we are working on.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
What does wood floor repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
What wood floor repair costs
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Barkway. The price comes down to:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material
- What kind of damage it is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Where you are, by postcode
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
